Howdy there, in the market to get some new IEMs and a DAC, I think I know what I want but was genuinely curious the consensus on them.

For the IEMs I was thinking the Letshuoer Astralis

For the DAC I was thinking the FiiO Retro Nano

What is the general consensus on these? I've done research on them and they both seem pretty good. Specifically the DAC it's a dual mode DAC/LDAC. On the case of the Astralis, I was looking for an IEM with good cinematics for Open World games with a good soundstage and was looking for them to suit my genre agnostic needs from Chipstep/Chiphop all the way to really technical metal and everything in-between. I found them on a really good sale on Aliexpress due to the Halloween sale and coins.

The Astralis for $113

The Retro Nano for $56.19

I'm also open to different suggestions as well sub $200 for both but with the sale and coins I've been finding crazy good deals.

I found an IEM called the Whizzer OperaFactory OS1 Beat, from general reviews they seem awesome, sound signature, tuning and even aesthetically wise they look stunning. I'm a bit of a Basshead though so anything that say bass heavy and stuff normally doesn't hit the perfect Db for me, sig wise for me is a warm Basshead tune, like warm treble, rounded mids and heavy bass(sub and mid bass), 100Hz range needs to sound great though. If the DD in it can handle it though I definitely don't mind EQing it myself because I like the look of them. A bass boosted Warm V isn't bad either. I'm genre agnostic but have been on a Pop-Punk revival binge as of late like The Paradox Band and such.

Howdy there, as the title stated was recently diagnosed with IBD, they aren't sure what I have, I have my first surgical consultation Wednesday but honestly I'm freaked out ngl, I want to feel better finally as this flare has been going on for over 3 months and it's been severe unrelenting pain, I was given Dicyclomine which has been a life saver but the pain and bloating is still very prevalent and gas just makes me hurt terribly. I'm not sure what flair to use so I apologize if this was the wrong flair but this honestly just sucks, Idk how else to explain what I've been feeling tbh.
